Chapter 2665 Breaking through the Arrow Immortal

The capital of the Vientiane Empire, inside the fighting arena!

The fierce battle on the fifth fighting stage finally brought a sensation that the fighting square had not seen for a long time, and almost all the audience turned their attention to this battle.

"What happened to the fifth fighting platform?! Why did such a fierce archery battle suddenly break out?!"

"No way?! You don't even know that Hou Jian who won ninety-nine victories?!"

"Waiting for arrows?! The one who won ninety-nine games in a row in the archery challenge?! Then who is the one who is facing him head-on now?! Why do I look so strange?!"

"A young newcomer named Du Long is heard to have stepped onto the martial arts stage for the first time today. Many people originally thought he was here to deliver food, but they never thought he was actually a dark horse!"

"Yes! It's rare for a dark horse to appear... His odds of winning are more than a hundred times higher! If I had known better, I would have invested a little money!"

"..."

In the entire martial arts square, almost everyone was talking about this archery challenge. Gradually, Du Long's name began to spread in this Nine Suns world.

"I didn't expect! Your attainments in archery are so high. It seems that I have to take your little-known opponent seriously!" On the fifth fighting stage, Hou Jian made an exception and spoke again.

"I've said it before! If you have any means, just come over!" Du Long still had a smile on his face, as if he still had some energy left, but he didn't go all out in the face of Hou Jian.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh. . .

Hou Jian was irritated by his calm and indifferent attitude, and directly performed a set of mysterious footwork with the soles of his feet. His whole body instantly turned into afterimages and ran around Du Long at high speed.

In the auditorium of the Fighting Square, some monks with relatively good eyesight had their pupils narrowed, as if they could see the origin of the movement skills used by Hou Jian, and their eyes immediately became a little cryptic when they looked at him again.

However, the vast majority of the audience at the scene did not recognize this movement technique. Everyone only knew that it was very mysterious. Not only was it extremely fast, but it was also able to leave extremely realistic afterimages on the martial arts stage.

"If you can force me to use this skill, it's worth it even if you die on this fighting platform today! Watch out for arrows!!" Hou Jian's slightly low and cold voice sounded again.

As he finished speaking, the afterimages of the figure running around Du Long at high speed directly shot out a shower of golden arrows that filled the sky, shooting towards Du Long in all directions.

Peng!

On the fifth fighting stage, a scene that shocked many people appeared. Du Long shook his body and transformed into a three-headed and six-armed fighting form in front of everyone.

Immediately afterwards, in the three-headed and six-armed form, he held three war bows tightly and began to rapidly shoot countless golden arrows in all directions, barely able to block the arrows that were waiting to be shot one by one.

The sudden change not only shocked countless spectators around him, but also Du Long's opponent Hou Jian's footwork was slightly delayed, and obvious fluctuations in the movement trajectory could be seen.

"What kind of magical magic is this guy using?! He can actually instantly transform into a fighting form with three heads and six arms, and all the heads and hands seem to be exactly the same as real ones?!"

"Is this a disciple of a hidden immortal sect who has been practicing in seclusion for many years? Is this a disciple who has gone down the mountain to experience in the mortal world?!"

"..."

In the auditorium of Martial Arts Square, there were constant discussions full of doubts, but unfortunately, no one could explain their doubts.

"What a man with three heads and six arms! This fighting form is indeed very good, but I don't know how long you can last!" Hou Jian's voice sounded again, and he could be seen running much faster.

A total of nine afterimages were constantly running around Du Long at high speed. During this period, they would continuously shoot a shower of golden arrows at him, and the roar of arrows hitting each other was heard throughout the fighting stage.

At this moment, the interiors of those extremely ordinary arrows have been injected with powerful metallic energy. They are no longer ordinary arrows. It is not an exaggeration to regard them as cannonballs.

After this continued for a while, Hou Jian seemed to feel that he was facing a turtle that was unable to bite him from all directions. No matter how fast he accelerated his attack, the opponent could always block all his attacks with ease!

He secretly felt something was wrong in his heart. One was running at top speed to fight, while the other was waiting for work. The difference in power consumed between the two sides was too big.

To put it simply, he cannot maintain this state and fight for a long time, but Du Long can stand there and keep fighting with ease. Once his power is consumed too much, the final result can be imagined!

"Du Long!" Hou Jian knew that he had to take the lead in changing the status quo, and actually reminded him again: "You are indeed very powerful, but now I have to use my strongest archery skills. I hope you can still withstand this test!!"

This time, he didn't wait for Du Long to speak at all, and the golden arrows shot at Du Long were overwhelming. Being able to warn him in advance was already the most benevolent thing!

With Hou Jian's warning in advance, Du Long naturally responded with extra caution. When he saw that there was no special abnormality in the light of the arrows shot at him, he thought in his heart that this was Hou Jian's suspicion formation.

But when the arrow light he shot collided with the golden arrows that seemed normal, he immediately discovered something unusual about the golden arrow light.

I saw those golden arrows suddenly split into two before the collision. As a result, only one arrow light collided with the arrow shot by Du Long, but the other arrow light avoided the head-on collision and continued to shoot towards Du Long. And arrived.

This was not just one of the arrows that had a mutation, almost all the arrows shot at Du Long had the same mutation, which left Du Long with not enough time to deal with it.

Shooting an arrow with a bow will always take a certain amount of time. No matter how fast Du Long shoots an arrow, it will not get much faster!

In this way, if you want to deal with this change under unknown circumstances, it is naturally impossible to block these arrow lights by shooting arrows.

In desperation, Du Long could no longer stand still and could only use his Five Elements Wind and Thunder Time and Space Footwork!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh. . .

In full view of everyone, a large number of arrows passed through Du Long's body.

Just when many people thought he had been defeated, they soon discovered that the figure pierced by thousands of arrows was just an afterimage.

Du Long's true body has turned into countless afterimages. After constantly avoiding the light of the arrows waiting to be shot, he is also constantly shooting his own arrows to fight back.

As a result, the battle on the fifth martial arts platform immediately became intense. The two figures were running at a terrifying speed, leaving only illusory afterimages on the martial arts platform.

"Wow! What happened to those arrows that were shot just now?! Why did they split into two?!"

"This arrow is amazing! Where are the two arrows split in two? They are clearly one arrow and another golden energy arrow!"

"An arrow...an energy arrow?! Could it be said...that this guy has reached the realm of half-step Arrow Immortal?!"

"That's right! That's the Half-Step Arrow Immortal, who can also be called the Quasi-Arrow Immortal! With only half a step, he can directly condense energy arrows on the bow, without the need for real arrows at all!"

"Oh my god! Although that Du Long also burst out with extremely terrifying movement speed, but facing a half-step quasi-arrow immortal, no matter how fast he is, he will definitely be defeated!"

"..."

After Hou Jian revealed his strength as a half-step quasi-arrow immortal, the entire martial arts square was in a state of shock, and the comments from many spectators also relieved Du Long's confusion.

‘It turned out to be the so-called martial arts and immortality. . . Especially between the realm of martial arts and immortality in archery, is there such a simple way to distinguish? ! ’ Du Long felt like he suddenly realized something.

He also began to carefully observe Hou Jian's body and arrow skills, and could see that this guy's body skills were extremely mysterious, and his arrow skills were no less impressive!

First of all, Waiting for Arrow's movement technique can actually condense nine more realistic clones at the same time, and attack the enemy from nine directions at the same time.

This movement technique does not seem to be simply a matter of high speed, which causes nine afterimages to appear visually. It clearly has the feeling of a clone.

Du Long can create countless original clones in his body, but he has never thought that a certain movement method can temporarily create a certain number of clones.

Secondly, let’s look at the archery skills performed by Waiting Arrow. This set of archery skills seems to be very simple. You only need to inject your body’s energy into the arrow, and at a certain point in time after shooting, let the energy and arrow separate and attack separately. Enemies will do.

However, when Du Long wanted to try this attack technique, he was unable to inject the energy into the arrow to separate from the arrow at a predetermined time.

After repeated failures, he gradually discovered the fundamental reason behind this, that is, the laws of heaven in the Jiuyang world restricted this seemingly simple ability!

Otherwise, how could it be possible that Du Long, with his cultivation at the peak level, could not even condense energy arrows on the battle bow? !

‘Restrictions of the rules of heaven? ! That being the case. . . Then I can only look for a breakthrough from the aspect of Heavenly Dao, as long as it follows the rules of Heavenly Dao. . . Then you have to understand and break through the corresponding mysteries of heaven yourself? ! ’

After thinking for a long time, Du Long finally found the direction he needed to break through. Otherwise, he would have to passively suffer from the rain of arrows waiting for him. It would be impossible to defeat the opponent on the arrow path.

In this way, he began to use the Five Elements Wind and Thunder Time and Space footwork, plus the advantage of three heads and six arms, to offset the arrow path gap between himself and the waiting arrow.

Then, while maintaining this balanced state, start to understand the mysteries of arrow paths while fighting!

Under normal circumstances, if you want to understand the secrets of the arrow path, it will take a lot of time to achieve success, but he and Hou Jian both reached the bottleneck point of the final ninth level of the first stage of the arrow path.

At this time, the time of training is often not important. The most important thing is the instant understanding of actual combat against opponents of the same level. Both Du Long and Hou Jian are in a hurry. In the end, it depends on who can achieve the breakthrough first!

Du Long was able to gain a lot of useful insights from Houjian, a half-step arrow immortal opponent. With the help of these insights, his talent in cultivation could only be described as rapid progress.

He did not completely copy the attack method of Waiting Arrow, but used various methods in a different way to condense an arrow of pure energy on the war bow.

Time continued to pass like this, and the fierce archery duel on the fifth martial arts platform lasted for a long time without a winner. Such challenging duels often have a certain time limit. .

As long as the two sides of the challenge cannot decide the winner within three hours, it will depend on the fighting situation to decide whether to end it in a draw!

However, neither Hou Jian nor Du Long wanted the match to end in a draw.

Whether they can defeat their opponents is secondary. The most important thing is whether they can break through the final bottleneck in the first stage of the arrow path. That is the result the two hope to see most.

‘Arrow path. . . Hou Jian's understanding of the arrow path seems to be much more systematic than his own. His own understanding of the arrow path has always been in the awkward position of being self-taught! ’

‘It seems that if I want to complete the test mission of Archer King Hou Pi, I must obtain a more systematic inheritance of archery. Perhaps it is also a good choice to obtain the Wanxiang Archery Technique from the Wanxiang Empire! ’

'Before that. . . He must find a way to break through and reach the level of Arrow Immortal. Only in this way can he have greater capital to gain the attention of the top management of the Wanxiang Empire, and can he strive to inherit the Wanxiang Archery Technique! ’

While fighting and comprehending at the same time, Du Long can also be distracted and think about various problems, which is another huge advantage he has.

In his original body, there are more than 10 million original clones of cells, so he can naturally do many things with tens of millions of distractions.

boom!

Just as he was distracted, a golden arrow light changed again, pulling his mind directly.

I saw that Waiting Arrow seemed to have made another breakthrough, and was able to upgrade to three parts when the arrow light split into two.

One of the arrows is still a real arrow, and the other two energy arrows are one energy arrow divided into two, and the power is also reduced by about half!

Waiting for the arrow's eyes suddenly lit up when he could see it. This seemingly helpless move just to increase the number of energy arrows actually gave him a glimmer of inspiration for a breakthrough.

Almost at the same time, Du Long's eyes suddenly lit up when he noticed the strange change in the arrow light. The kind of breakthrough opportunity that he had been struggling to find appeared in his heart.

Buzz, buzz!

The mutations caused by the two breakthroughs appeared one after another on the fifth fighting stage. Many spectators who were still watching the challenge to the duel stood up excitedly after a brief period of astonishment.
